What a great find for you Peter - a super picture you've taken of this kestrel, which is a Gallery rarity (yours is only the second picture to come in so far).

Many thanks for sharing him with us.

How does it not pierce itself on that perch? What a gorgeous closeup this is. Beautifully captured against that blue sky.
